The 3 days workshop is intended to provide functional and technical training for both existing and prospective Bika users. It will cover the fundamentals of setting up, configuring and getting started with Bika LIMS and continue into specific discussions revolving around the myriad of functionalities the system provides and others to come within the following months. For those participants interested on the technical side, guided sessions with Bika core developers around database architecture, workflows, instrument integration, customizations and deployments will take place too.
